Set Up Fee NOT waived as promised

Helenaq

I contracted Verizon Fios on Dec 16th and I was promised by the agent that my 99 set up fee would be waived.

She said it would show in the email she sent, but it would be removed from my bill.

It did come on my bill and I called to complain but they said that there is no such thing as a set up fee waiver. I asked them to go back to the recorded line of when I contracted the service to check what I was promised and they REFUSED to do it.

I looked online and other people had similar issues - it looks like the company incentivizes agents to lie to clients...

Let me know how I should proceed!
